Reproduction of the original: Scouting For Girls Adapted From Girl Guiding by Robert Baden-Powell

Aucun scout au monde n’ignore qui est Robert Baden-Powell. En 1899, lors de la seconde Guerre des Boers, Lord Baden-Powell, capitaine-instructeur, s’illustre lors du sauvetage de Mafeking. Alors que les troupes ennemies qui assiègent la ville sont quatre fois plus nombreuses, il utilise les jeunes de la cité pour transmettre des messages à l’extérieur. À la libération de la ville, Baden-Powell est traité en véritable héros et nommé major-général. Il publiera un petit fascicule destiné aux militaires pour démontrer que les jeunes sont tout à fait capables de mener à bien des missions dès lors qu’on leur fait confiance. Ce concept rencontre un immense succès en Grande-Bretagne. En 1907, Baden-Powell organise un camp de huit jours avec vingt garçons de différentes classes sociales dans le Dorset. C’est, de fait, le premier camp scout. À l’issue de cette semaine, il démissionne de l’armée pour se consacrer pleinement au scoutisme et écrit un ouvrage qui deviendra le manifeste de générations de scouts à travers le monde : Scouting for Boys. Cet ouvrage pose les grands principes du mouvement. Ainsi, pour Baden-Powell, le scoutisme a cinq grands buts : la santé, le sens du concret, la personnalité, le service et le sens de Dieu. En plus de détailler la philosophie du mouvement, ce livre propose aux chefs scouts des activités à faire avec leurs louveteaux et éclaireurs. C’est une véritable bible, une mine d’informations, de jeux, d’histoires et de principes éducatifs.

Sinopsis : Bahagia, sehat, dan bermanfaat. Tiga kunci sederhana untuk dijadikan bekal dalam menjalani petualangan di masa muda. Baden-Powell, laki-laki yang dijuluki “Serigala yang Tidak Pernah Tidur” ini banyak menceritakan pengalamannya selama menjadi anggota militer Britania Raya. Definisinya tentang kebahagiaan dan kesuksesan membawa kita pada filosofi hidup sederhana untuk bisa menjadi keren dan sukses. Menurut pendiri Pramuka dunia ini, ada lima batu yang harus kita taklukkan agar dapat menyongsong kedewasaan dengan cara elegan. Batu-batu tersebut adalah kekuatan, minuman keras, pergaulan dengan lawan jenis, penindas dan pembual, serta ateisme. Dengan contoh konkret dan pemecahan masalah yang logis, buku ini bisa menjadi bacaan yang tepat bagi para pemuda pencari tantangan. Ditulis dengan tulus oleh seorang pendiri Pramuka, Rovering to Success layaknya nasihat dari seorang ayah kepada anaknya yang beranjak dewasa. Deskripsi : Kunci ajaran Baden-Powel adalah ''jadikan dunia ini lebih baik saat kamu tinggalkan''. Secara tidak langsung dalam buku ini pengarang mengajak generasi muda untuk bertanggung jawab atas kehidupan sendiri, tidak bermalas-malasan, mempertahankan integritasnya, dan saling tolong menolong serta memiliki sikap ksatria. Rovering to success merupakan buku panduan hidup untuk remaja yang pertama kali diterbitkan pada Juni 1922 di Inggris. Berbeda dengan buku Baden-Powel sebelumnya, scouting for boys, buku ini lebih filosofis, tetapi ditulis dengan gaya seperti nasihat seorang ayah kepada anaknya. Selamat membaca!

In 1899 while serving in the 2nd Boer War, Robert Baden-Powell penned his sixth military book, Aids To Scouting. It was a non-typical training manual filled with personal stories of intrigue and even games. Its goal was to encourage the development of light reconnaissance scouting skills within the British Army. The book was well received by various armies of its time, including the French Army. His successful defense of Mafeking (1899-1900) in South Africa made Baden-Powell a well-known national hero in Britain. But what completely surprised Baden-Powell was that his book was eagerly taken up by teachers and youth groups to help organize outdoor activities and sport. He eventually embraced the idea of adapting his work into a new youth-oriented book, Scouting for Boys (1908) which went on to sell approx. 150 million copies to date. It was that follow-on book that firmly launched the international Boy Scouts movement. Aids to Scouting contains sections on the characters of a scout, as well as practical advice on observation, stealth/camouflage, map reading, sketching, tracking, reporting and care of horses. It presents these topics is a simple conversational style that makes it easy to read, and is illustrated with personal anecdotes of military adventures by the author. It gives scholars clear insights into his mindset and beliefs that served him well in the siege of Mafeking and shows a clear lineage to the formation of the tenets of his formation of the Boy Scouts. Anyone interested in the history of Boy Scouting will definitely want to read this interesting and formative book.

A wonderful guide to pre-First World War espionage by the founder of the Boy Scouts.

Drawing on Baden-Powell''s extensive archive, Playing the Game is a rich and evocative selection of his writings, on peace - a major theme throughout his career and the theme of the 2007 centenary celebrations, on his own life, from his wonderfull idiosyncratic anecdotal autobiography and includes a healthy sprinkling of some of BP''s more memorable aphorisms, such as ‘I don’t mind confessing I have a weakness for hippos'' and ''The man who holds the average boy’s attention for more than seven minutes is a genius'', not to mention ''Knowledge without character is mere pie-crust''. Imbued with a strong sense of the splendour and the old-school Empire feel of Baden-Powell’s work, Playing the Game offers a dazzling window into a world that’s gone, but whose legacy remains alive, not least in the 28 million members of the Scouts Association

Bill Gates, el astronauta Neil Armstrong, la escritora J.K. Rowling, J.F. Kennedy, Steven Spielberg, David Beckham, Juan Pablo II, Jacques Chirac o los propios reyes de España lo fueron: todos ellos comparten un pasado scout. Respeto por los hombres y la naturaleza, solidaridad, espíritu de servicio, valentía, responsabilidad, generosidad... son valores tan necesarios ahora como hace un siglo para construir una sociedad más justa y sostenible.

A startling amalgam of Zulu war-cry and imperial and urban myth, of borrowed tips on health and hygiene, and object lessons in woodcraft, this text is the original blueprint and ''self-instructor'' of the Boy Scout Movement.
